Portrait Demo

Quick Colour Study and Measuring Techniques

I've been trying to produce some videos of my process to get myself ready for the demo that I presented this week. Much of what I shot isn't presentable but a great way to practice and figure out what you are doing and why. I've been also writing about my portrait project but that is more on how it is while I am painting and what is going on inside me. This is how I'm figuring out why I took on such a huge project and looking at the learning and challenges I'm meeting along the way.

My only regret with the demo is that I only just barely got started on the portrait when the time had ended. Maybe next time I'll be faster and get a small piece completed to my satisfaction.
I did get some of the techniques detailed and some repeated which is good, so that it may help with better understanding and retention. At least this has been helping me as I practiced doing my videos. I hope that I was able to teach something, as the process I'm learning is endlessly fascinating to me now and especially as I try to learn new things daily. I also see my portraits starting to evolve and that makes me very happy.
I'll write more on the quick colour study next post.
